This tutorial tells you to remove retarget.c from your project, could that be why you had an issue with it?

The senior enginneer gives me a hint: he is using JLINK V9, and my JLNK is V8. However I do not believe what he described is the main issue. I think incorrect content of "retarget.c" is the reason why RTT_Syscalls_KEIL.c cannot be compiled, but I do not know how to modify it. Thank you very much for Øyvind and best regards.

Hi,

If you are not getting any errors and its working that should be fine. Either way for SDK 11 we have a simpler way of printing with RTT, please see Vidars answer in this post.

Dear Øyvind, hello, I got no error,but one warning,

compiling nrf_assert.c... compiling nrf_log.c... compiling retarget.c... compiling RTT_Syscalls_KEIL.c... compiling SEGGER_RTT.c... compiling SEGGER_RTT_printf.c... ............\external\segger_rtt\SEGGER_RTT_printf.c(300): warning: #111-D: statement is unreachable default: goto FilterFieldWidth; break; ............\external\segger_rtt\SEGGER_RTT_printf.c: 1 warning, 0 errors compiling softdevice_handler.c... assembling arm_startup_nrf51.s... compiling system_nrf51.c... linking...

Could it be the issue of the content of "retarget.c" ? However, this is using codes of JLINK's segger_rtt. thank you very much and best regards~

Dear Øyvind, hello, yes, I have copied the syscalls folder from the RTT download. SEGGER_RTT_printf works well for me now, but "RTT_Syscalls_KEIL.c" still cannot be compiled. I have asked that senior enginneer again and again, he still does not wanna answer my question. thank you very much and best regards~

And you have copied the syscalls folder from the RTT download?

I have added these to Include paths: C:\Keil_v5\ARM\Pack\NordicSemiconductor\Syscalls; C:\Keil_v5\ARM\Pack\NordicSemiconductor\RTT; ............\external\segger_rtt; however, I still cannot compile "RTT_Syscalls_KEIL.c"

Add C:\Keil_v5\ARM\Pack\NordicSemiconductor\Syscalls to the path

Thanks for Øyvind, it solves parts of warnings! I find that I should overwrite correct version of source codes with original JLINK's segger_rtt. However, I still cannot compile "RTT_Syscalls_KEIL.c". (shown as the picture updated above.) Thank you and best regards~

Hi,

This error occurs when you have not added the paths for the .h files.

You need to add the path for RTT as described in the tutorial

This path is C:\Keil_v5\ARM\Pack\NordicSemiconductor\RTT

Best regards,

Øyvind
